Explaining how the market is evolving, Hydros said: “A lot of fragrances use ingredients that are not suitable for human beings and the environment, but regulations have now come in place to dictate what ingredients cannot be used. We welcome these changes. Disposal of aerosol cans are also being regulated in many countries like in the UK. Apart from this, strict regulations are also being put in place in Europe for the size of spray particles in the air.
“Usually these particles should be large enough to not be absorbable by the lungs. However, nowadays, several companies have been using systems that release fine mist-like nano particles of fragrance oils that can be absorbed by the lungs that can cause serious health issues.”
EASY TO USE Battery change and disposals are another issue that users face, as frequent battery changes add to the service cost. Oxygen-Pro systems on the other hand require such a tiny amount of power that two AA alkaline batteries can last up to one year. Another service issue is the frequent cartridge change required.
to be identified – it then surrounds the molecule and neutralises it. While the concept of malodour elimination is commonly used, the Neutra-lox technology is an advanced new technology and is part of the formulation of the fragrance oil itself.”
A number of organisations are going scent-free and some facilities like hospitals, nursing homes, care homes and clinics want to eliminate unavoidable odours without any added fragrance. For facilities that desire specific malodour eliminators without any fragrance, or a very low fragrance, a choice of two new cartridges are available in the Oxygen-Pro cartridge range: Neutra-lox and Kleer.
‘Kleer’ is a 100% natural plant-oil based malodour eliminator with no fragrance and ‘Neutra-lox’ cartridges have a high concentrated formulation of Neutra- lox with a hint of lemongrass. Both these cartridges are ideal for areas

surrounding patients where odour elimination is a challenge and also areas like hotels which are notorious for closed rooms which are full of damp, musty and tobacco smells.
‘Kleer’ is a natural malodour eliminator, which has proven to eliminate any malodours in areas like garbage rooms, where strong odours are a particular problem.
SAFE AND ECO-FRIENDLY With no added solvents and no alcohols, the Oxygen-Pro cartridges contain 100% pure fragrance oil and are a safe choice for any facility. Since the cartridges are not pressurised containers, they are safe to transport and store. The cartridges do not contain any CFCs, and have no added volatile organic compounds (VOCs) or propellants. The cartridges can even be safely disposed of in a plastic recycling bin at the end of the cartridge life.
The Oxygen-Pro system comes with a choice of two Fragrance Cartridge sizes: The Regular Cartridge and the Grande Cartridge. Hydros explained: “The Regular cartridge works for 30 days and is the ideal choice to replace aerosols, gels, spray or other passive systems. When using the Grande cartridge, the dispenser can be programmed to work for 30 days (strong fragrance intensity), 60 days (normal fragrance intensity) or 90 days (light fragrance intensity), and the ideal product for service companies to reduce their labour costs.”
The dispenser automatically detects the Grande cartridge and works as per the chosen setting. The Regular cartridge works for 30 days immaterial of the programmable switch position. The simple push-and-go format ensures quick and easy, hassle free service while the bright LED light and audio buzzer indicates when the cartridge or batteries require a change. The Oxygen-Pro system is reliable, effective and economical.
